NEW YORK UNIVERSITY PHOTOS OF GREENWICH VILLAGE from the NYU Digital Archives, located: here. Most of these photos are from the early to mid 1960's. The ones with the older cars are mostly from 1945. I downloaded these in 2014 when it took a special tool to screenshot the photos. You will notice the tool called the "Navigator" in the upper right of some photos. I could only capture what was in the red box. Now you can get the whole photo. There are a lot more available photos on the site. My thanks to NYU for preserving these photos and putting them on their website for future generations to refer to. The photos are in no particular order. They are in the order I found them.
